The Shogun sends his finest retainers to investigate a trade island that seized all communications from the mainland. What monstrous terrors await this band of warriors? Think Dark Souls, Ninja Scroll and Onimusha. Not only are we tasked with uncovering the mysteries behind this island, but we are responsible for finding and retrieving an important figurehead, one of the Shogun's most revered concubines. Perhaps a loved one you know is here as well, or stories of their hidden riches is what truly draws you to this place.
While this will be an action packed RP, it will very much have a horror theme to it. What your characters encounter on the island will be unlike anything they've ever experienced, truly putting their sanity and overall constitution to the ultimate test.
Notes:
- This will be an alternate reality loosely based on Feudal Japan.
- Magic will be limited to enchanted weapons, armor, and accessories.
- We will be playing as humans. Other races like elves, dwarves, etc. are not available.
- The bestiary and fauna is very much similar to the geography/time period this RP is themed on. Fantastical beasts and monsters are things heard in stories, but never seen.
- Classes are basic: Samurai, Ninja, Archer, and Monk.
- Detailed info will be updated in the OOC if this gets enough interest.
- Along with the Action and Horror elements, there will also be survival components. Your character has a high risk of getting injured, sick, along with other fantasy/horror-type status ailments. If left ignored, death will be the least of your worries.
